Abstract

NC data for machining the cone-frustum by means of five-axis machining centers with a tilting rotary table are analyzed in detail. The cone-frustum is machined by using a milling cutter at simultaneous five-axis control for inspecting the machining accuracy. However, the NC data have to be changed corresponding to the setting position of the workpiece on the rotary table. Thus, the moving range and velocity of each axis are analyzed by changing the apex angle and center position of the cone. It is found from the analyzed results that the larger apex angle gives the larger moving range and the higher velocity to all axes. When the center position moves along the Y-direction, every reversal point independently appears on a circular path. Therefore, it is recommended to offset the center position of the cone frustum along Y-direction to give the large moving ranges and the high velocities to the axes.
